Besides the six workpiece coordinate systems (standard workpiece
coordinate systems) selectable with G54 to G59, 48 additional workpiece
coordinate systems (additional workpiece coordinate systems) can be
used.

Pn : Codes specifying the additional workpiece coordinate
systems

ting the workpiece zero point offset value

When a P code is specified together with G54, the corresponding
coordinate system is selected from the additional workpiece coordinate
systems (1 to 48).
A workpiece coordinate system, once selected, is valid until another
workpiece coordinate system is selected. Standard workpiece coordinate
system 1 (selectable with G54) is selected at power–on.

As with the standard workpiece coordinate systems, the following
operations can be performed for a workpiece zero point offset in an
additional workpiece coordinate system:
(1)The
MENU
OFFSET
function key can be used to display and set a workpiece zero
point offset value.
(2)The G10 function enables a workpiece zero point offset value to be set
by programming.
(3)A custom macro allows a workpiece zero point offset value to be
handled as a system variable.
(4)Workpiece zero point offset data can be entered or output as external
data.
